From an Alexandra Matthew fan

I enjoyed Twelfth Night very much and I recommend that everyone go see it. More specifically, I want to say that Alexandra Matthew has been excellent in everything I’ve ever seen her in.

FABULOUS, FAR OUT "Twelfth Night" SEE THIS PLAY!!!

Your 12th Night was the Greatest

12th night is my favorite Shakespeare play (excluding histories, tragedies and problem plays)–OK, it’s my favorite comedy since high school. I can cry when Helen Hunt as Caesario meets her brother–and I cried all night from laughing so hard.  Lesley and Bob, you are geniuses–and talented geniuses. I had my reservations about a 60-70’s version. I […]
